Data from Jin10 reported on May 8 that the Federal Reserve (FED) proactively lowered interest rates in 2019. In response, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell stated that the current situation cannot be compared to that time. The inflation rate at that time was below the Federal Reserve's 2% target; however, now it is above that level, and due to tariffs, it is currently expected "that we will see upward pressure on inflation." Powell told reporters that now "we cannot act proactively, and until we see more data, we will not know what the correct (policy) is."
